Bag appeal: I'd give it an 8 or higher
First glance: first cursory glance as soon as I'd broken a small “chip” off, and it really felt like chipping it off with the edges of y'r fingertips.., All i could see was a mass of resincaked red hairs and specks of nicely lime-green colored buds. This enticed me to dig out the pocket microscope and wow “chrystal laden” would be one of the words that'd spring to mind, really really resinous.
Smell: the smell mostly reminds me of a dutch dish while being cooked called “hutspot” ever smelled that cooking?? the carrots and onions boiling together..that smell is what sprang to mind, other smells it reminded me of mostly: the smell of sick/vomit!! Yummy!!, not!! ;-) well not usually but right now i'm completely stoked by that smell because it tells me i'm in for something special!! woohoo

Report#1
Smoking tools: Acrylic bong with a widemouthed wooden bowl on a metal downstem, filled with water

First Hit: on the inhale the taste is smooth and slightly fruity. In fact the hit is remarkably smooth since i hadn't put in any ice cubes!! Nice :yes: There's a light kick in y'r chest upon inhalation. On the xhale the taste is all the way skunkiness with some slightly pine taste as well..very lightly though. Warm and relaxing feeling starts from the top of y'r head and spreads down nicely..
Taste in my mouth after a few minutes is still dank/skunky basement, time for another hit. By the way, typing is only possible if I slow myself down, otherwise it's just a mass of typo's..:)

After a few more minutes...the warm and relaxed feeling it spreads throughout your body but it seems to center around your upper torso, my upper arms/chest feel thoroughly stoned :biglaugh:

It also seems to do wonders for my ears, i'm watching some old tv eps and have me headphones on for sound and i'm picking up way more then i usually would, a deeper sound perception i'd call this...

Time for another hit. :)

Second hit: well the relaxed/warm/sttoooooonnneeedd feeling has creeped down to my fore-arms and seems to have settled there, despite this I can still type and watch some dude in a Bugatti Veyron doing 2 laps around the Nurburgring..still have stumbling fingers though lol..

I was just reminded a little bit about GHS Big Bang, they'd used an NL#3 or #5 in that...i'm thinkin the warm stoned feeling is from that part of the cross..only in this cross it's better/deeper/richer so far..
And I do believe a haze has been used in Big Bang as well that's the reason why i wanted those..because of that NL#5xHaze cross in it..because yes there's a quite brilliant bodystone going on but at the same time your mind is flying a mile a minute! And when you want to you can focus on whatever it is you need to be focused on...
But the difference is probably in the other plants used in both crosses. I have to say so far I prefer the MrNice NL#5/Haze version as I knew I should because tbh i've not read a lot of bad things about MNS...and this one does not make me paranoid/trippy, far from it actually :D

Comedown:
I've been about an hour in now I think?? and have just finished the bowl (yeah i know, slow toker..I like to appreciate everything to it's true depth..)
Don't know how long this has been curing but it tasted excellent (meaning no chemmy taste) and burnt to a nice white ash :yes:

Actually, i'm thinkin i'm gonna prep another bowl (a small one just like the first one) as a nightcap an hit that in a minute..
Laterz...
PS : It does not work very well as a night cap Your body will still be relaxxed enough but your brain will still be going way to far/fast to be able to fall asleep quickly..

Conclusion:
It's called NHS and rightly so!! feelin totally relaxed little to no pain, no muscle cramps or spasms, doing well for your overall mood, good stress reliever...
I'd say it truely does wonders for ones health so if this one could be distributed worldwide rather then all those pharma's then Yes it could very well become a National Health Service in and of itself!! :applaud:

Taste: the dry hit tastes faintly of the immense intense smell (as mentioned above in report #1)
Once plugged in ( glass-on-glass whip hands-free style)and heated up you most definetively get the same sick/sour taste/smell on the inhale and on the exhale it's pure sourness + some slight berry candy tones inthere at first before you exhale/expell all your breath..
First hit
I'd say vaping it gives a clearer high as i'm now able to type without the stumbling fingers :)
Been vaping for a few minutes on 180 ° C now so..time to turn the heat up a bit to 186 degrees Celsius (366°F)

Second hit
Had two hits on the 186 and wow BANG is the stoned ness right there all over the top half of y'r body at first complete with stumbley fingers!! :D It's a bit of a creeper now this weed..
Have been typing this report while watching old TV reruns, sound is much more around/surround without having turned on that specific option on my pc

After about 45 minutes--> Munchies!!!
Mucho munchies, so i'd say good for people with appetite problems

Come down
Came down about an hour and a half after first starting, nice and mellow...

Overall Conclusion:
Differences now that i've vaped this weed: It seems the high gets a bit more active now...about 20 minutes in it might hit ya hard but after a while that'll level put out and you'll be busy and I do mean busy LOL, your mind is going a mile a minute and so are your hands if your typing : )It's still great for audio perception, meaning that i did pick up more sounds/music and a deeper level of it...just as described in report #1
The warm and mellow almost no pain feeling was lacking a bit but that might have something to do with me having smoked something different prior to starting this vaping session.. :spank:

I'd still say overall that this weed is great for feeling great physically relaxing yet mentally activating/stimulating. Not so much go out and party/ dancin weed but more sit down and have a great relaxing evening with good music and good conversations etc.

nice report man!...I don't know where I have been....lol...sorry I missed the grow thread entirely....lol. As always, stellar job, mate!

I like how you separated each hit like that...made for a good evaluation of strength/potency. Gives a great perspective of how to use this herb appropriately for medical patients...nice touch!

Now go get me some macros of those trichs!!! HAHAHAHA. (always the picture nazi...lol)

nice report High Lowlander...I have a pack of Mr.Nice's NHS and I can't wait to grow these out..From what i've read you gotta do a pheno search..due to the cross being from 3 diff plants( NL, Haze and Skunk) there are many pheno's to find..That;s why i grabbed a pack..Shanti has said grow at least 3 plants out of this cross and you will find a keeper..I am looking for a hazey leaning pheno to use in breeding projects...Great Report
peace
Chefboy
 
Heya Titoon and Chefboy
Thanx for the compliments!! In regards to the pheno's Jamie did tell me he had a couple of different ones, as he's the one that grew all the plants including the one my sample came from. As far as I can remember he had at least one skunk leaning pheno, and at least two or more haze leaning pheno's...the plant my sample came from was referred to as the "donkey dick" pheno because of the way the buds grew..I suggest checking out the growthread it's link is located at the top of the report if ya wanna find out about this amazing medicin a bit more!! :yes:
 
Whoops,
Hiya Eddie :wave:
thanx for the compliment, i'd say go for these beans, just treat them plants with the proper amount of time and they will greatly reward you in kind, with kind bud :D

MNS produces some of the very best you can get in seed form. relatively cheap seeds, in a 15 pack, what more could you ask for?

the taste/smell profile sounds remarkably similar to sharkshock. one of shantibaba's best.
